Dear Internet Admins, I have a bug-less report, Not enough bugs on the web. Why aren’t we calling cookies “spiders”? Spiders are sneaky and discreet. They hide in corners and silently gather information, just like these web “spiders” Cookies might sound harmless and delicious but they’re EVIL! They watch us everywhere! Could you also update advertisements to call them “flies” and AdBlock to “bug spray”

Please can you push these Updates to the Web!!!

    It is because the term “spider” is already used in computing to refer to web crawler programs.
